  • Not OP but this is a hell of an insight, thank you.

    You’re right that I would have no frickin clue what that second sentence would mean. Someone asking me if I emailed Bob yet directly would not offend me, and I’d prefer it.

    My only solution so far has been to say directly to my coworkers that they won’t offend me by asking directly but that doesn’t work 100% of the time. I get paid to do my job, not decode 400 lines of possible subtext from a passing sentence because they’re afraid of asking a question.

    I still say hello and act friendly though. ¯_(ツ)_/¯




  • Preface to say I don’t necessarily hold these views, just my observation:

    • .ml is considered “tankie”

    • Blahaj.zone is shitposty and pretty solidly trans-friendly/oriented

    • .world is “neutral,” and I think federated with most instances (I joined this one bc I was brand new here and it seemed beginner friendly, but I lean further left so ¯\(ツ)/¯ may instance hop in the future)

    • Lemm.ee runs similar to .world but maybe slightly more right leaning

    • Sh.it.justworks is predominantly techie

    • Sopuli.xyz seems primarily meme-centric

    • Feddit.org seems neutral-ish and more EU based, beyond that don’t know much

    I’m sure there’s others I’m missing/stereotypes I’m wildly wrong about or not yet informed but that’s what I’ve gleaned so far.
